Bug ID: 204115
Summary: freebsd-update: Add function to support
error/notification messages from server
Product: Base System
Version: 11.0-CURRENT
Hardware: Any
URL: https://twitter.com/aikchar/status/659589693445533696
OS: Any
Status: New
Keywords: feature
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
Reporter: koobs at FreeBSD.org
Flags: mfc-stable9?, mfc-stable10?
Currently freebsd-update fails in the following manner for unsupported $ARCH's:
# freebsd-update fetch
Fetching public key from http://update6.freebsd.org failed.
In order to improve the user experience, and provide additional
context/information for particular failure scenarios, freebsd-update(8) should
support returning messaging for errors/notifications/warnings from the server.
This would also allow for a much better user experience in additional
situations, such as when the service is experiencing issues, during maintenance
and for other uses we cant think of yet.
